I'd like to say I'm in, but I can't fully commit to that date. Hope to be there though. My wife has some follow up medical tests scheduled the week leading up and assuming everything is ok I should be able to make it.

Squatch - Assuming I'm ok to go, I could probably take off Friday and we could travel together if you'd like.

I was just gonna suggest that to you, Swattie. I'm hoping that Thursday I can knock off around 3-4pm. Usually on Thursdays I'm out of here by 4:15pm. We can be rollin into Potato City by 8:30!

For room and board, as I said in the beginning, I will be opening up my cabin for the crew this year. Its in Potato City, not far from Potter County Family Campground, where some stayed last year. It was a great group of guys last year, and now that I've met most of you, I'm very comfortable opening up my camp. We usually ask for $5 per night from guests of members, which goes in our general fund and helps pay the utilities and other expenses of the cabin throughout the year. This is hardly rigid though. We're laid back like that.

There are beds for 8 (16 if you want to have bed buddies...no thanks!), 3 sofas, ample floor space for sleeping bags, etc. and plenty of room out back if anyone wants to pitch a tent.

As Wetfly said, we'll talk about food and stuff. We have a big old flat top stove from a diner that we can use to cook big ole' community meals and stuff. We'll get into that later.

The cabin is reserved and my time off is submitted! Concerning Thursday, I took that day off as well. So, Swattie maybe that effects your plans to truck it up w/ me, but we can work that out later. The camp will be opened on Thursday late morning/early afternoon!

If any of you are even thinking that you might come to this, or want to meet some other people to fish with, I have one thing to say. COME TO THIS MINI JAM. All of these guys are great guys, and very welcoming. You may be thinking that it would be awkward to go and hang out with people that you don't know. Well, not this group. Not at all. You will have fun. I don't get anything if you guys come other than to expand my group of friends. I just want you to know that you are all welcome.

Good message, Coty. I went to every Jam I first attended a little tentavely, but never regreted it. I even met Bruno for the first time moments before we drove 8.5 hours to the Smokey Mountains: memories that will last a lifetime.
